Pay With Your Heart -
Chapter 330 - Lucky
Dan-Han was shocked by the amount of work waiting on his desk. Was this some plan to prevent him from going home to be with Eun-sun for the day?
He had just finished his meeting, and it was 10 am already. He wanted to go home and cuddle her and stay in bed with her all day. They have been apart for so long, and he wanted them to spend some quality time together. Thinking about it, they haven't really done that since they started dating. It's been months already, and he hasn't really spent any good time with her with no intrusion whatsoever. There was always distraction coming from the right, left and centre. This was her first relationship, and he hasn't really shown her the sweet perks of being in a relationship, most importantly being in a relationship with him. He has just been possessive and hasty with her.
He looked at Chang-Wok, who had been acting strange, like he was scared of something all morning.
"Can't you do some of this work?" He glared at him, begrudgingly eyeing him.
"Sir?" Chang-wok blinked confusedly. His heart raced faster than it already was. He has been nervous since yesterday, wondering what could have happened between the boss and Eun-sun. He had heard about the immediate sack of the director in her office, and he was hoping he wouldn't be next as he had also played a role in the event of yesterday. What would he do if Dan-Han sacked him? Beads of sweat formed on his head.
Dan-Han frowned when he saw how shaken he looked.
"Why do you look that way?" Dan-Han curiously inquired. Chang-wok swallowed when he heard his question. How was he to ask? He heaved profoundly and composed himself.
"President Lee, I... I'm sorry for yesterday." He said, making Dan-Han loll back on his seat.
"What are you sorry for?" He asked.
"For...miss Park. I should have informed you... before letting her in." He stuttered. Chang-wok felt he'd die of a heart attack when Dan-Han didn't reply and blankly looked at him.
Dan-Han couldn't imagine what he would have done to him had Eun-sun really left him last night. He'd be bleeding from every hole in his body and begging for his dear life by now.
"Presi..dent Lee?" Chang-wok whispered.
"Make yourself useful and help me get home as soon as possible." He hissed at him, making Chang-wok stare at him confusedly.
"Does this mean you'll not fire me?" He anxiously asked, his heart pounding heavily. He swallowed when Dan-Han frowned.
"Ask me one more stupid question, and I'll grant that request of yours." He snarled, making Chang-wok jump upright to compose himself. He couldn't believe Dan-Han wasn't going to sack him.
"Thank you, sir!" Chang-wok deeply bowed. "Thank you." He bowed again, but Dan-Han didn't say a word. He'd rather he put this energy into helping him go back to his woman as soon as possible.
"Chang-wok, get to work." He ordered.
"Yes, sir! Right away, sir." He replied and happily dashed out of the office, leaving Dan-Han to work.
Dan-Han sighed when he looked at the mountain of files still standing on his desk after two long hours. What sort of conspiracy was this? He regretted not bringing her with him. He'd have her rest there with him, but now, she was alone at his place.
His eyes shot up when his office door opened, and he saw Ni-Na strolling in. Drama queen personified; he hissed inwardly and returned his attention to his work.
"Why was she here?" Ni-Na asked in an angry tone making Dan-Han glance at her.
"Who was here?"
"Kwon Nara." She answered. "Why was she here?" She asked, still standing by the door with a deep frown on her face.
A deep crease also appeared on Dan-Han's face when he heard her.
"Where?" He asked.
"At Eun-sun's office." She replied as she walked closer to him.
Earlier, when she had arrived at the company, she had thought about dropping by Eun-sun's office to say hi, before coming to see Dan-Han. She had promised to help Eun-sun get back with Dan-Han, but she had been so busy lately. Blame her mom for tagging her along to every social gathering she had been to since they returned to the country. She had no idea why the woman was taking her everywhere she went.
She had only stepped into Eun-sun's office when she saw Kwon-Nara asking around for her. She had seen the surprise on Kwon-Nara's face when she came face to face with her.
The girl had even tried to walk past her like she hadn't seen her.
Ni-Na took a step and stopped in front of her, making Kwon-Nara shoot her an annoying look.
"I heard you asking around. Why are you looking for her?" Ni-Na asked flippantly, showing Kwon-Nara she wasn't asking for fun. Kwon-Nara looked at her from head to toe in a condescending manner before trying to walk past her, but Ni-Na blocked her path again, her eyes glaring at her more intensely.
"I don't want to know what you know or why you're looking for my brother's woman, but just so you know, this isn't the past. If you as much as try those theatrics you're good at, or harm Eun-sun or my brother, or even as much as to cause trouble for them-" She paused and straightened herself before taking a step closer, so she was towering over her, reminding Kwon-Nara what she lacked in the height department.
Kwon-Nara took a step back when she saw the way Ni-Na was looking at her.
"I'll crush you." She completed her sentence, her words dripping with seriousness. Ni-Na maintained her cold stare on her for a while before turning around to leave.
She paused and turned towards her again, "And Nara," She called, gaining her attention. "Please make yourself scarce in front of my brother and his woman. You know how he can be when he's mad. Aunty isn't here to save you anymore. Be careful." She warned before walking away.
Dan-Han frowned when he heard that Kwon-Nara had gone to Eun-sun's office. What did she want from her? What was she going to say to her?
"I hate that girl! I can't believe you thought about marrying her before. You're so lucky." She hissed irritably as she dropped her bag on the table and took her seat.
"I never planned on marrying her. Mother had arranged that." He reminded her just in case she had forgotten.
"Ya, whatever!" She rolled her eyes at him. But Dan-Han didn't mind her. His mind was locked on why Kwon-Nara had come to see Eun-sun. What could she possibly want from her?
He had to get rid of that pest before she became a problem.
